Once a Catholic priest, András Kun became one of the most feared members of Hungary’s pro-Nazi Arrow Cross Party. In late 1944, he led death squads that massacred Jews in hospitals, homes, and even on the banks of the Danube. His orders often began with the chilling words: “In the name of Christ – fire!” This film tells the story of his reign of terror, the atrocities he committed in Budapest, and how justice finally caught up with him in 1945.
